Forgotten Rain: Rediscovering Rainwater Harvesting, by Heather Kinkade-Levario, ASLA, Phoenix, AZ.

"This is a strong piece of work on a very valuable subject. A must-read for landscape architects and other designers."
— 2006 Professional Awards Jury Comments

The purpose of this book is to help educate the public on how to do rainwater harvesting, to show the components of a system, and to eliminate the idea that the process is complex. The author has had multiple requests for information, requests for presentations, and requests for providing class materials, which demonstrated a need to get the information into one document and out to the public for education purposes. Several state manuals and international books exist for the subject, but no one book/document is as comprehensive with history, component information, case studies, details, and references.
